family were killed back on wednesday that was two women and three children when a mortar fire from syria landed in always a tension building at the same time we're hearing continuing words from the turkish prime minister that he will not allow these kind of events to go unprovoked he says that if pushed he will declare war and that has been quite a strong message from him now that it's going from soon that this instability and on the turkish syrian border will result in regional instability there's also concern by numerous critics who have put forth the argument that they believe that the shells that are being fired from the syrian side of being fired liberty in each remember that this rewarding area on the syrian side between syria and turkey is an area that is controlled by the rebels and as such it is possible that their firing these these rounds deliberately to provoke turkey to go to nato and call for foreign intervention of course this is something that many people are increasingly concerned about the situation in syria after eighteen months of fighting a showing no later not

a continues to be almost daily blasts in the capital city of damascus and they're particularly cost suicide bombings have become almost the norm the same situation is happening in aleppo the commercial hub of the country in the north and there we're hearing of continuous heavy fighting and also in recent days and in recent weeks we've witnessed a rise in gas suicide bombings there were also receiving a twitter feed from the sheriff adnan out of daraa now he is. a sunni muslim preacher and the salafist media has become almost a symbol of the rebels fighting in syria he says that they have captured the cousin of the syrian president bashar assad we have no information on that at this stage and no way of actually being able to independently prove it russia continues to play a mediating role they are expecting that the e.u. in nato envoy to syria could be in russia later this month and as such will be there for talks with russia it is age and common saying that this kind of

escalation in tensions along the turkish syrian border is completely unacceptable in any kind of cross border operations are to be found upon. political and other shall we know want eases turkey has been incredibly in the idea of direct action against syria for a long time. churchill declared war on syria long time ago this is aragon endeavor to lose war they've supplied weapons supplied training assistant they've harbored you know gunmen in jihad just on their territory so so you know turkey's at a situation should know crossroads where they cannot seem to get the international system thing need to sort of you know do a last question against the regime they cannot get a u.n. security council resolution to authorize these things and this may be you know setting the groundwork a pretext for a backdoor into military intervention because of course turkey been caught it can call on its nato allies to to assist in its sensually the nato allies who would

anyways do you know a military confrontation with third regime if there was a u.n. security council resolution and there are questions about this is this the false. you know operation to sort of set the ground for military intervention there been many folks narratives over syria i think this is just another one. and on our website away all skin you whether you think it will send troops into syria thirty four percent of you think ancora will use parliament emotion celeb's kurdish militants in syria a call to say turkish society will revolt against the rule but to the voice was flipped among those who say it will happen if shelling from syria continues and those who think that they can't like the nato support costs jovo sheltie dot com. the train is keeping up its crackdown on protests from protests causing morpheus' clashes between police and demonstrators on friday tear gas and water cannons away

to get coverage accurate bahrain coverage of the human rights abuses on air while i was there what c.n.n. is doing is they're essentially creating what some people have termed infomercials for dictators and that's this sponsored content that they're airing on c.n.n. international that's actually being paid for by regimes and governments and there's by late every principle of journalistic ethics because we're supposed to be watchdogs on these governments we're not supposed to allow them to be paying customers who are able to kind of dodge our minders and sneak into some of the villages and actually see these atrocities patients who had run out of the hospitals that were shot up with birdshot and as we were heading back out of these villages we were detained by security forces and brain and luckily my female producer and i were able to hide some disks in our broads and we were able to actually get out of the country with this content so you can imagine surprise when we got back to the u.s. and this content was airing on c.n.n.

and right after that is when the phone calls started coming into the network complaining about me and trying to get my coverage. this time it's a clash of the trash these thirteen thousand angry residents hit the streets. calls a blaze over the reopening of a rubbish dump more details on our website. than washington becomes the latest americans advantage is play anti jihad as we look at whether it may actually be provoking even more hatred towards the muslim world this and more features and stories waiting for you to website. and hysterically anger is mounting in europe a civil servants take to the streets for a second day in madrid trade unions have gathered thousands to demand an end to cunt bags in the public sector and the part of times ation of public services italy has also seen its fair share of action this week led by the country's students who

clashed with police thousands marched in major cities calling for the government to stay in schools not banks in rome up to six police men were injured as students hurled stones at them and tried to rush a police van while in the venice independence supporters marched on saturday to demand the region go it alone investment advice the pentagon says the e.u. is headed towards collapse. the european union constantly believes it knows what's best for all of its client states therefore it pushed countries like ireland into a beloit in order to basically appease french and german borrowers there are absolutely no positive results from what the e.u. has done over the course of the last five or ten years indeed basically the history of the euro is not horribly saw an exercise in effectively reaching the people and trying to destroy economies the european union has several fundamental problems ultimately it is a very rich area was

a great deal of resources the difficulty is it's very difficult to start a business it's very difficult to run a business if you're successful in the business they're going to touch you to death and in the meantime they're all running absolutely ridiculous communist era sized socialist states the truth is western europe is bankrupt it cannot afford to have the government be the major economic actor in the system and therefore just as we saw russian communism collapsed so too we're seeing the dare for western european socialism. the pakistani military has blocked an end to u.s. motorcade rally which was heading towards the country's tribal hub along the afghan border the protests which began saturday is being led by a cricket legend turned politician imran khan and as attractive thousands of people can says a large number of civilians have died in the american drone strikes and is calling for an end to the killings demonstrators plan to reach south waziristan an area plagued by insurgency and most frequently targeted by themselves but would turn

back their ignoring reports that the convoys could be targeted by taliban suicide bombers political activist al above the believes of the rally has the full support of the people. the lords the grand jury go of their region has welcomed him there is only resistance that is being provided by the government of our sound which does not want or in this area of exposure because for the past five years we've been hiding the fact that homes have been industry jump on the on the public front they actually deny it but on privately behind the doors of the us government they actually accept the fact just a simple attack on a super energy and unfortunately for the past five years our government has actually blocked including american war on terrorism american what has now become and these should catch on all of these terrorists that are doing it but unfortunately not able not able to handle the anomic affairs of the country let alone disturb the mission that has been be followed in our country in part.

america's involvement in neighboring afghanistan has also seen conflict civilians as well as nature troops lose their lives later on r.g.p. we look at the legacy of washington's wall eleven years on and what it has brought more calm than. these stories and much more after this break stay with us. it's perched atop a john. and the view from the kremlin stretches as far as the eye can see apt for a city to all of siberia for centuries. it lost its economic importance even before it was bypassed by the chance i bear in railway but the a spiritual center. scenes like these are a yearly occurrence thousands of all the docks worshippers and blessid water to

commemorate the baptism of jesus. in the fifteen eighties the russians had only just conquered siberia taking it from the muslims. surrounded by enemies the balls to be their stronghold constructed on top of the city but soon enough it became an economic hub siberian fire was the oil of its time bringing in a third of all russia's state revenue put the location had of the uses for the russians the russian crowds who led a revolt against the czar and eight hundred twenty five known as the decembrists will stand here and drove. there they created a replica high society adopting the latest fashions as soon as they came out or at least once they made it from paris to siberia. but the city also serves up some bit

of irony for the russian royal family after the bolshevik revolution. this is the office was nicholas the second spend most of the last year of his life his whole family had been exiled here they were the fairly comfortable existence this was a big house but they weren't allowed to see visitors or go outside themselves whilst leaving this ordinary normal countryside lifestyle they even have those with but within the yeah there's a lot of his family would be dead. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought

you knew you don't know i'm trying hard is a big. mission . critical patients three. torture free. range month three. free. free. food free board video for your media projects a free radio gondar t.v. dot com. with archie good to have you with us change all mall all the same the question venezuela's off have to answer as they head to vote for president sending incumbent faces the biggest challenge yet to his socialist rule from

a young democrat who seeks often with the. just over in caracas where voting has finally kicked off in venezuela you can see a huge line of people stretching around the corner we're not even close to the polling station but the excitement here is a man and these people have been lined up as you can see the line is starting to finally move for hours hours before the polls even opened both candidates have been urging people to take to the streets to really get out there early to try to build up a mass of popular support early because as soon as there is an irreversible trend the winner will be announced now what is at stake here on one end and comments president hugo chavez who is really radically changed both venezuela and the region under his so-called socialist twenty first century policies one of that has translated to is essentially nationalizing certain industries using venezuela's oil exports revenue to really focus attention on the underprivileged the poor here in this country that's translated into social programs health care education.

communications housing and transportation services for people who really didn't have access for that and this has over the years built up a groundswell of opposition for more than one officer for two years and he wants to stay for six more years now his opponent has really seized on some of the problems that continue to plague this country this is corruption a very high crime rate in. young a forty year old wealthy businessman who has criticized this country's economic policies he's promised to improve ties with the west and could really radicalize the way this country's resources are now critics here suggest and worry that perhaps he could represent a radical alternative to shopping nominally in the sense that he could reverse a lot of those social programs policies potentially impose austerity packages on the country and really take away some of the programs of the poor here have continue to rely on of course that is not what his campaign says but that is the fear we seek out in caracas venezuela. let's not discuss the story with

a times correspondent. joining us live from there is good to see them mr escobar now the two the deep distrust each other and the latest polls with the two candidates roughly even as it is a sign of how divided the country is. yes it is divided but the latest information that we have it's not they made for a sub this could win by fifty five percent to forty five percent according to the best last minute polls that we have the better dead actions going on here there is the turtle venezuela election going on which is basically a little middle class debt that they will love to spend more of all to the malls all the time and since martin is in miami like they always do in fact they're going as well or i guess the poor forty three percent of this government's budget goal to social policies in general so what he's been building over the last i don't

need is a more equitable society and that would be the best gini coefficient it lacks in america that in terms of social inequality. if it were compared to other countries in developing world if it was the chief or the problem with job it is dead which of these as they go to bed as well and even all or all around latin america is very poor soil eyes by the president himself and there's a lot of corruption and inbuilt in this system so. much of a cup chris is saying that is not the extreme mill liberal or right wing because this is one of the it is no liberal right wing their basic is not a secular democrat but what is being say about corruption was correct and this is something that happens not only even as well but here in argentina where you have a moment in brazil as well and this opposition between them to poor

and middle classes that aspire to live like that with all classes in europe or do i ask this to saying you find the same problem even as well in argentina or and because of sold a recent class struggle that it's very very hard core all over of these. most important contests in south america and then there's the other election which is show this war against washington which of the united states that we would love to have the korean state even as well like it was before jobs before these twelve years and but the child was so ill or whatever happens in this election problem chobits when. this will mean more integration in terms of lots of america. a decrease power over washington agents or washington itself in the race no cells america and better conditions for the poor as well but very very important should these small tasks right into corruption is

a lie let me just jump in there you talked a little bit about tell washington now the international media has portrayed chavez as. and his campaign in very black and white why is the west so negative towards him. it's amazing because if you follow a mainstream media india way in the western europe and even the most of south america big private groups controlled media sells of america even as well in brazil in argentina for instance shows is the most big one now is the head of state in modern times even more than say that hussein. out of five or ahmadinejad's you name it it's amazing. g.'s private groups of course do. they usually said they're all right we more right we said of course and all of the most of them they are alive and good russian just like the situation that you see so i fit as well so often as the japanese is there just as a communist or even a fascist or even

a mix of bulls like a communist fascist this is completely absurd. the direction that we're talking about inside the system has to be combative just like the corruption is inside the workers' party brits are. when the political space needed to be it's still the most . popular head of state and the rule by far brazil has fallen to around eighty percent johnny smoked a lot of children as well holders around sixty percent even after twelve years of all this because most of the votes he's believes are the poor and most of them to develop a blizzard of low middle class they are poor and that they want to become middle class just like brazilians for instance to move manage to get a story to forty million people from the poorest classes in brazil to become more middle class or the us and chavez is doing that sort of smaller stephen as well thirty billion people who was well off but at least ten to fifteen mile they could

go see their themselves at least lower middle class for a good thing and that is the most unequal in the world especially south america this is an enormous achievement some critics say. may attract people not because of his policies but because they won some kind of a change is that fair in him. is that a yes i see it's a truth. it's got a president of the usually real fun hour after twelve years in power of course you need brother ideas need new ideas you cannot because of the with what you achieved and once again you have to fight like no corruption to do it in some sectors of the system specially people don't make enough money because their state employees so they resort to corruption to become a but the middle class will go to the switch so this is the problem but the dems of the policies them selves lie for most of that is well documented shit is much

better imho david was twelve years ago if he applied the famous american question are you better off than you were four years ago most of it is was would say yes the job is a palace to cation better job opportunities the literacy literacy radically disappeared from venezuela teachers there were two of years ago there were like thirty thirty five thousand teachers in it as of now there will hundred sixty five on the health scare this is much better with by the way and there was of integration in the inlet america between venezuela and a whole other of latin american countries this is all positive for of it as well and and for good because the breach of the integration is so but it's always the middle classes that have a conservative a right to be bad so they've looked down into the great crisis only even as well it's all over this continent and it's happening in europe in the us. a day doing so

. you can reach are going to have ascended to the upper midwest levels of the world's more consuming bowler and off course this can be achieved but not to the traction of the forests the sectors of society we're going to have to leave it right there thank you very much ate at times correspondent but as well find out if that cheese my eye will actually. get is another thing and then parliament. but i'd say over the seven the eleven years ago the day the u.s. led war in afghanistan began over three thousand alliance troops have died in the conflict most of them americans far more afghan civilians have also lost their lives international affairs commentator regrows also believes the only thing nato has achieved is causing hatred among the local population precious little has been accomplished nothing positive sense of course by the the western military intervention an occupation in afghanistan. most or you know arguably the only

accomplishment dubious as it is this i don't be in production of skyrocketed under the watch of the u.s. and nato in afghanistan you know evidently the afghan people are not on the map in foreign boots on the ground and you know particularly after such a prolonged period of time the so-called green on blue attacks are an indication that the rank and file of the afghan population would like to see us in their nato allies or the us in their nato allies very good at the country as quickly as possible and that none of those are the barcode would have occurred in the first place out of north korea for the carter and the reagan administration straight into the job the war which you know exacerbated by regional and other times inside the country and there's a you know essence led to a thirty four year war in afghanistan and we have to place the blame where it belongs you know this is the result of u.s. intervention going back to the late one nine hundred seventy s.

but in a few minutes nearly four decades after former president nixon called an end to the war in vietnam a close look is taken at the scars and legacy still for many to see. lines in motion would be soon which brightened if you knew about someone from phones to impressions. moves from stunts on t.v. dot com. well to the true science technology innovation and all the moves developments from around russia
